Step-by-step instructions

Curl lashes with an eyelash curler for lift and to open up the eye area.

With a small shadow brush, apply the black with red pearl shade from the NARS 413 BLKR Eyeshadow Duo to lids. Smoke out the outer corners and bring that same hue to the lower lash line.

Apply a mauve shadow from the Tom Ford Eye Quad in Orchid Haze as a transition shade, fading evenly into the bro bone and underneath lashes. Using the same palette, apply the lavender shimmer shade on top for extra sparkle.

Brush a highlighter shade to the brow bone. Pro tip: this helps to also blend transition shade so that its seamless.
